    Research Management and Accessibility in Academic Libraries through Interoperability of Repositories
    (Colleagues of Researchers, Educators & Writers, 2015-04) Urhefe, Enite Anita; Ebiye, Edonkumoh V.
    Academic libraries are working in new areas to support the publishing activities of their institution's faculty members, including helping them to manage and archive research data that they produce. Many institutions have multiple locations in which faculty can deposit their data and this distributed arrangement presents challenges for searching, unifying collections, and archiving. In order to foster some interoperability between these multiple data repositories, university libraries need to develop a system that brings together such multiple systems to enable the harvesting and replication of metadata and content across the systems. This paper focuses on present initiatives of interoperability and the benefits of enhancing interoperability among the different systems in institutional repositories.
